About King Midas’ Masquerade Ball

King Midas’ Masquerade Ball is the debut of an extraordinary new interactive entertainment from the Texas Renaissance Festival. Experience an unforgettable night of astonishing sights, dazzling entertainment and delectable culinary temptations. King Midas invites you to honor Dionysus, god of wine and revelry, at a spectacular Masquerade Ball, where all are equal behind the mystery of a mask.

A magnificent all-new complex has been created on festival grounds opposite New Market Village especially for this exciting new event. An enchanting tented pavilion set in an exotic garden fantasy; King Midas’ Golden Court features climate control, restroom facilities, ADA accessibility, and special parking. Its location is convenient and easy access to the festival’s superb Fields of New Market campground.
